does anyone else think its weird that i wait til midnight to start doing my homework and must have itunes, the internet AND timtams by my side before i start? oh well..
today was a bloody long day in school. started at 9 and ended at 6.15...woke up late and had no time for breakfast, so stopped to get coffee from union house before going for physics. can i just say that i love the guy who runs the italian place in union? he's a total 50yr old latin lover wannabe, who compliments EVERY GIRL who walks in, but i don't care. i love him anyway. and he makes the best.coffee.ever. its very nice to go talk to him when nobody else is around in the morning.had bio prac which was really fun. we had this CSI type of thing...they gave us a murder case and 4 suspects...and evidence obtained from 4 suspects, along with their testimonies and our task was to find out whodunnit. and they all had weird plant related names like paul encell (pollen cell :S). can i just say that botany is the most boring thing EVER? and i think my lecturer is a drug pusher on the side. he seems to know an AWFUL LOT about cannabis. like how this much number of plants will produce this much amount of drugs for consumption and whats the perfect fertilizer to use etc etc...hahaha...the lt was in stunned silence for half a minute when he started his cannabis talk, then this nervous laughter started breaking out. aiyoh, damn weird la...not like uni profs need extra $$ and have to resort to this kind of thing right?? wtf...
had another weird thought. that day i walked by and smiled at this professor who had given a guest bio lecture early in the year. and he's a NOBEL PRIZE WINNER...like what the hell...the closest i'd ever got to an award winning teacher was my asshole of a tamil teacher in sec2 who wanted us to nominate him for Singapore's Best Tamil Teacher Award....and now i'm walking past a NOBEL LAUREATE....hello how bloody out of this world is that? and my chem lecturer plus my bio tutor have both won other awards in their particular fields but ask students to call them by their first names...haha..its a culture shock.
ok i give up on this bloody phys tut...its pointless..nobody does it anyway.and nobody talks in my class either.
ok its 110am now..i'm tired. i hate physics. i need food. and im already looking forward to tmr morning's coffee...how much of a caffeine addict am i right about now? a big one. to the point where i just have to smell coffee and i get happy.oh well, at least i'm not addicted to cannabis.

okaaaay i've been trying to dl this song since forever and a day ago...finally i have it. yay. its the most uplifting song i've heard in a while.
ok last week passed really fast.
had my first test on friday. everyone was panicking about this phys test and about how they dint study and ppl were preparing cheat sheets...even saw one guy crossing himself and praying before they gave out the papers...and it turned out to be.....12 measly mcq questions. haha...ok it took like 10 mins to do and is worth 3 1/3 % of our final grade...but hey, every mark counts.
friday night was the night market...went just to eat ramli burger, laksa and drink bandung...but it rained SO BADLY...i was drenched and looked so horrible...and of course there was the highly disturbing incident under Raymond Priestly building...which left melissa laughing at me...thanks a lot!! hahaha. it was creepy then but its funny now.
we couldnt tahan the rain after a while and the market wasnt that great...so we trooped over to Brunetti's which is fast becoming mine and melissa's friday night hangout (twice in 3 weeks!!)...and i tried the raspberry chocolate mousse..wah lao its DAMN good. and the hot chocolate...its like they melted a block of Godiva into a mug.
there was a black out around 10plus...went home around 11 to discover that my apartment block was affected. so 3 hours with no power and no internet...bummer.
saturday i had vietnamese food with the sister and HK. not bad la...a good dose of chili and all was well. went back to HK's place to watch him kick his room mates out...it was highly underwhelming! haha...but he made up for it by cooking fried rice for us.
sunday i just spent at home. it was too cold to go out. and today, after school, i spent the evening looking for Ari's textbooks and downloading like 30 songs...all thanks to Karn!! haha...but its ok..i always enjoy my convos with him and he always recommends good songs. i try to reciprocate but I JUST DONT HAVE AS MANY SONGS AS HIM. was telling him about school and he was telling me about going to taiwan. haha my advice to him was to bring wet wipes.

its 830 in the morning. how weird is it that i'm blogging? hahaha.
kimi raikkonen won the aussie grand prix. i could hear the engines going from my house. it was pretty cool. and kimi looked good. :D
yesterday myself and 2 other girls were trying to explain the differences between boys and girls to our clueless male friend. haha it was pretty hilarious to see. he suggested that he get out a notepad and take some of the things we were saying down. siao.
ezzah has shocked us all again by posting another picture of an UGLY ASS boy on her blog. i dunno where she finds these mutant lookalikes. there's really NOT ONE redeeming feature about this new one. she needs to come to melbourne NOW to see what a hot guy really is.
yesterday bio prac was an independant learning task, where you go to the com lab, do this computer program, answer some questions then leave. it's supposed to take between 60 and 90 mins. i took 30. i get a bit nervous when this happens cos i think that i'm not doing enough, or i missed a huge chunk of questions or something, but i really only took half an hour. so i had 3.5 hours free after that. went to get my new visa with the permission to work, where i met a very nice postgrad student who was telling me about dubai, cos my dad might be moving there.
!!!
cant say whether i'm happy or sad about that. new york is my favourite city on this planet and i've loved it every single time i've gone there, but dubai sounds really interesting as well. so i dunno. its all a bit soon tho. my dad told me the news a week ago and he's gonna move in april. damn. i wanted to see NY one more time in the summer. oh well. i suppose i can go to dubai now in australia's summer, cos its supposed to be nice in the mideast in december. and i've always wanted to fly on Emirates. we'll see how it goes.
man u are thru to the semi-final of the FA Cup, after a 1-0 victory over middlesborough, courtesy of a ronaldo penalty. the stupid interviewer kept alluding to the fact that cristiano dove to earn the penalty, but ronaldo managed to keep his cool...good for him. and the boro management suck. they were actually shouting at ronaldo that he's a cheat. i hate gareth southgate.
ok time to stop ranting. time for breakfast. and a bath. and coffeeeeeeeee. i'm so tired. |

how is it that this song never gets annoying?
its 930 on sunday morning. usually i would be sleeping, but i slept so much yesterday that no matter how much i snuggle in bed, sleep wont come. and i've run out of milk, which means i cant have cereal this morning. :(
its been a busy busy week. i just seem to be running around school all the time...and then when i come home i'm too tired to do much more than homework.
i've concluded that the coffee served at the italian place in union house is the best on my side of campus. cheap(relatively), good and the guy who makes it is really nice and funny. we had a great 10 minute convo once when i was the lone person alive in school at 745am.
the first cycle of lectures is coming to a close, and many of my subjects are changing lecturers this week. i miss my bio and earth science lecturers. they were nice, and gave excellent notes. the new guys....not so much. i will REALLY miss my chem lecturer tho. damn. dont want him to leave.
phys prac was so dumb on tuesday and it took so bloody long. was rushing abit cos i had plans with gaya to go eat dumplings after that and i needed to go put my stuff at home. it was such a pointless prac. seriously.
i think i finally did well in bio prac. yay! i could see what i was supposed to see and it all turned out good and my prac teacher is the nicest guy. i hate my partner tho. i much prefer talking to the girl on the other side of me. my prac partner is pretty useless.
finally went to st.kilda on friday night...which is the place where the beach is. went with melissa, val and this other girl named Shari. the beach is really beautiful, with the wind and the water and the last part of sunset, which we managed to catch by some stroke of luck. the only scary part was finding jellyfish scattered along the shore. and they were BIG...i'm never swimming or even walking into those waters. all the walking made us pretty hungry so we walked around the main street and found this restaurant that was serving all main courses for 15 bucks with a complementary local beer or house wine. so obviously we jumped at the chance. i had lamb which was so bloody good it nearly brought tears to my eyes. hahaha....shari got slightly tipsy on her ONE GLASS of wine...and val got all red the moment she started drinking her beer. haha...very funny to watch. we planned to go check out another place in the city, but we missed the tram stop, so instead had a nice ride just talking and talking and talking. it was a nice friday night.
watched aussie grand prix qualifying on sat morning. KIMI took pole. how awesome is that?? so today im gonna have lunch with gaya, do my shopping then come home quick to watch. i hope he wins i hope he wins i hope he winsssssssssssss.
man u completely demolished bolton last night. 4-1. rooney2,park2...amazing stuff from ronaldo. ah i love man u. they always make me happy.

eeeew man u drew with boro. bastard defending i tell you. we gifted them two goals. managed to follow barca-madrid on gamecast before i had to go out. it ended 3-3. madrid really should have done better cos barca only had 10 men...but that lionel messi..he got a hattrick.
k enough football..i know most of the ppl who're reading wont appreciate this.
friday was my first chem prac. it was so disgusting to wear those monster goggles. anyway, the prac was a simple titration. we were given 3 hours to do it. i took 1.5...and i left early, wondering why nobody else was done. i was only the 2nd to leave i think...and i was doing mine really slowly, chatting with the girl next to me and the guy across me, who dumped the indicator into his standard solution of NaOH, instead of into the HCl...meaning he had to start everything again. poor thing. we got a good laugh out of it tho. he was so scared of making another mistake that he asked my partner to put the indicator for him after that! ha.
went out that night with melissa. we walked around crown but all the food was so ex, so we went to look for someplace to eat along the river. found an irish pub but got turned away cos melissa dint have ID on her...haha but no matter, it gave us the opportunity to go try Nando's, which is this fast food joint that sells chicken. and after that we had fabulous dessert at this place called Brunetti's....i tell youuuuuu my God my cappucino cake was so yummyyyyy...as was her chocolate mousse. that was also the night of the champions league draw. its as follows:
man u vs roma
ac milan vs bayern munich
liverpool vs psv
chelsea vs valencia
im looking forward to this one. anyway, when melissa's bro messaged her the draw, we were talking so excitedly about it, and suddenly this chinese(obviously singaporean) guy at the next table asked us "EXCUSE ME is that the champions league draw??" like damn excitedly. haha his gf dint seem too happy that he wasnt focussing his undivided attention on her. oh well.
was planning to do my homework on saturday...but met my sis for lunch. dint expect to stay out so long...only came home around 7. so no hw. but i did finally get to see college square. i dunno if i wanna move there next year. i think its further from school than where i am now. if i can find someone to share with (HINT HINT EZZAH!!!) then i'll consider, cos it'll be to expensive otherwise.
had some tasty italian food for lunch with my sis and hasseeb. spent a few hours at his house playing cards, watching funny videos...and doing other dumb stuff...went out for gelato after that, and grocery shopping. it was fun. even the grocery shopping.
got up early this morning to meet gaya and her teacher for lunch. yum cha is what it's called. basically a chinese tradition of eating dim-sum-ish dishes and drinking chinese tea. haha the food was gooooooood...and they had real honest-to-goodness chili...YAY!oh and another thing. I ORDERED MY HARRY POTTER BOOK! haha...apparently i'll get a free soft-toy owl as well..which i dont really care for, but whatever. i think i only have to pay 30 bucks. july 21st...that's like a 131 days away...what if i'm not here....oh wait no, second semester starts on 23rd july...so i'll def be back by 21st, if i DO go home, which is not confirmed. i dont think i will. ive been on too many trips this past year.
i really should stop leaving my homework til sundays. not good. gotta print chem worksheet, do it, do online chem tut and prac hw PLUS do bio tut and print earth science notes. add that to laundry and you get my regular sundays. managed to finish it all in good time which is nice. used my time pretty efficiently if i do say so myself. managed to cook , bathe, go downstairs and do laundry and then come up and fold said clean laundry all in the space of 90 mins! made the mistake of not putting on proper clothes when going to do my laundry. wore my ratty tanktop and shorts(that i sleep in) down to the basement...and had to endure an embarassing ride in the elevator with some guy i'd never seen before. i was trying to use my laundry bag to hide my bare legs which were clad in small ratty shorts that look like if you blew on them, they'd tear.
WHY WONT MY BLOODY PHYS NOTES PRINT??!! oh wait yes they will. :D |

i am sitting infront of the computer with the world's biggest and best tasting chocolate chip muffin at my side. seriously ya'll...this thing is almost the size of my face! but it tastes so good that i'm having absolutely no trouble finishing it.
have spent the last few days doing the coffee survey. basically every day i go to a different place that sells coffee on campus and get a medium cappucino with one sugar...just to compare. got 2 more places to go and then i'll release my findings. haha. i decided to just try the ones on the science side of campus...cos frankly...i never go to the arts side and i wouldnt go all the way there just to get a coffee when all my classes are on the other side of campus in an 800m radius.
today morning was man u vs lille. we won thanks to a wonderful run from ronaldo and a great header from larsson, on his last appearance at old trafford. so it was nice. final 8 for the champions league...
ac milan, bayern munich, chelsea, liverpool, man united, psv eindhoven, roma, valencia.
i hope we draw valencia, roma or psv in the next round...and that ac milan and chelsea draw each other.
met my physics tutor today...he's a masters student. i swear to God when i came into the class and saw him writing on the board...i was thinking 'who's this arrogant prick that finished all his work and decided to write the answers on the board before the teacher came in?"
haha dont blame me...my bio and chem tutors are old....and earth science as well. how was i supposed to know...but anyway, he's nice. dint recognize anyone in phys tut except for one guy who's in my bio prac...but i suppose over time i might get to know some of them. not that it actually bothers me.
ok the muffin's all gone...and that means it's time for me to end this lunch break and get ready for my next class....effing 3 hour earth science tutorial. THREE HOURSSSSSSSSSS....i remember triple chem in TJ...i think it'll be something like that. |

whoo its a good day. woke up late in the morning. went for the ferrari F1 carnival. i saw the formula1 ferrari car up close...it whizzed past me like 12 times...it was breathtaking...and this coming from someone who doesnt even love F1 that much. took a shit load of photos of the other ferrari road cars on display and tons of videos of the racing car driving past. i should get pratap's email address and send him the stuff i've got. he would get such a kick out of it. i wanted to buy a model racing car for him...but it was 130 bucks...i figure a picture of the real thing might be enough.
ya so after hanging around taking videos...hoping my future husband had a car like some of those i saw...came home to rest and evaluate whether i was sun burnt or not.
melissa messaged me to ask whether i wanted to go with her and her sis to watch the match tonight. i jumped at the chance...not sure my stream is working...was gonna try again later...but if i can go somewhere fun and watch...why not.
ok actually this entry is pointless. i dont have much to say. i wanted to post the ferrari pics...but blogger's being a bitch to me as usual. |

results are in 17 hours. i cannot sleep. no matter how much i want to.
sometimes i wont think about it for a couple of hours(like today when i went to visit my sis). and then it'll pop into my head suddenly and i'll feel like all my internal organs have been liquified and are dropping straight through me.
its 0037hrs and i have a class in 7 and a half hours. i don't know how i'll concentrate in it. the worst thing is that i have a 4 hour break between classes tomorrow. and i'll be going crazy. i planned it so that i'll have to spend some time tmr running some errands. but they wont take up even half of that time.
i'm trying to listen to some soothing music, but this ball of nerves in my stomach refuses to go away. its not so much disappointing myself...God knows i've had to deal with that before. its about not wanting to disappoint my parents. i dont want them to have to go to school and try and hide their disappointment in front of staff or anyone who's around...and then get angry but pretend to be supportive because they're worried about what i'll do to myself here alone if they think i'm upset or scared. from a personal point of view...i dont really care what my results are. i mean of course i want to do well...but it wont be the end of the world for me if i dont. but i dont want my parents to have to deal with nosy relatives and friends and their own disappointment. gosh i'm using that word alot. and i dont want to have to deal with going to school or my parents calling me up everyday for the next week if i dont do well to check up on me, when i'll much prefer to stew in my own misery for a while.
on some weird note, i somehow wish i could be in school. so i can get my results first...accept it, then tell my parents.i am DREADING the phone call tmr where the callerID will flash my mother's number. and also i want to be there to support friends and be supported...because it makes it a little easier when there's someone next to you clutching your hand and you know that they, like you, are just trying not to puke their guts out and praying for the little slip of paper to tell them they've not completely fucked up their life.
it's so pointless to look back and regret now. but i do. So God, help me out. give me decent grades, more for my parents than for myself, and give my friends the grades that they want.
good luck to everyone...and let's stick by each other no matter what happens. |
